She went upstairs to make her bed
An' not a word to her mother said
Her mother she went upstairs too
Sayin', "Daughter, oh daughter what's troublin' you?''
"Oh mother, dear, I cannot tell
That railroad boy that I love so well
He's courted me my life away
An' now at home no longer stays.''
"There is a place in London town
Where my love goes an' sits him down
An' takes a strange girl on his knees
An' he tells to her what he won't tell me.''
Her father he came home from work
Sayin', "Where's my daughter, she seems so hurt''
He went upstairs to give her hope
An' found her hangin' by a rope.
He took his knife an' cut her down
An' on her bosom these words he found.
"Go dig my grave both wide an' deep
Put a marble stone at my head an' feet
An' on my breast put a white snow dove
To warn the world that I died of love.''
